    architecture like this would be better for the environment than industrial air conditioning

      This is not air conditioning. Not to be the “actually” stereotype, but air condioners literally “condition” the air by removing humidity (it was actually designed for this purpose, a side effect of removing the humidity was lowering the air temperature). This is simply good ducting and natural exchange.

      Good for the environment, yes! Air conditioning? No

          You’re completely correct, I live in an area where you’d never be trying to add humidity lol. I was also thinking in the context of why it was originally invented, which was wrong to do. I removed my comment
